Evolve Discovery Bolsters Its eDiscovery Capabilities with Equivio Technology for Near-Duplicates and Email Threads

SAN FRANCISCO, June 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolve Discovery, a full service litigation consulting and project management company, announced today that it is using Equivio's technology for near-duplicates and email threads to enhance its eDiscovery services. As a key component of Equivio's Smart Discovery model, this technology enables Evolve Discovery to streamline the processing, review and production of electronic documents.

"Evolve Discovery melds human capital and best-of-breed technology with a singular focus: Cost Certainty. Our process transitions the legal spend away from burdensome document review and data management. Client budgets can be refocused towards true legal work and motion practice. In short, we let lawyers be lawyers again," said Andrew Jimenez, President & CEO at Evolve Discovery. "As document volumes continue to grow, our clients require solutions to implement and manage the eDiscovery process more efficiently. Equivio's technology for grouping of near-duplicates and email threads clearly demonstrates its value in helping our clients to quickly isolate the information they need, while containing litigation costs." 

The grouping of near-duplicates and email threads allows attorneys to skip redundant data, and focus exclusively on the unique information in each document.  By enhancing the findability of relevant data, Equivio reduces the risk of missing key information. The Equivio groupings also ensure that similar documents are treated consistently, while enhancing review productivity and helping litigators meet tight deadlines.

"Law firms and corporate legal departments require advanced tools that allow them to intelligently navigate the multiple challenges of today's litigation arena," said Amir Milo, CEO of Equivio. "Equivio's technology for near-duplicates and email threads further strengthens Evolve Discovery's end-to-end service offering, enabling it to reduce the risks and curb the costs of e-discovery for its clients."
